Man, none of these commentators know the rules. All of the comments on the punter's attempt to pass the ball were of the "What the hell was he thinking?" variety. Well, if he had thrown an incompletion, then the Colts get the ball back at the 45, not the two. I'm not convinced he was even trying to pass it anyway, but no one ever considered the incompletion scenario, even on the highlight shows. smh

Pretty sad. I was drinking Belgians with a friend and our very first comment was "Incomplete or safety." Replay clearly showed fumble = safety.
